l. The battery Charger gets hot
during use. The Charger’s heat
can build up to unsafe levels and
create a fire hazard if it does not
receive adequate ventilation, due to an electrical
fault, or if it is used in a hot environment. Do
not place the Charger on a flammable surface.
Do not obstruct any vents on the Charger.
